(no pun intended.)

Having eaten everything from fruit bats to sea slugs, I'd love to give it a taste.

Even big tough pigs should tenderize with some stewing. Cook it with enough spices, throw it into a tortilla, and it seems to me it'd make a pretty good taco.

At least pigs don't seem to carry any prion diseases (mad cow) that I've ever heard of.
